ActionScript 3.0 :: Export Frame By Frame Animation?
Jul 31, 2011
I know I can export a simple tweened animation using "Copy Motion as Actionscript 3.0" and passing the resultant XML to an Animator object. But what I'd like to do is export a frame-by-frame animation and use that in my code.
As for why I want to do this, I'm trying to simulate a post-it being ripped off of a white board. Doing it and getting it to look natural using just code is going to be difficult, so I was thinking of having a designer at my company do a frame-by-frame animation of it and then using that.

My objective is to paste together several ( a lot, actually ) armature animations, each in a separate symbol.I have no idea how to do it, armature layers are a bit... strange. So i see only one solution: convert it to a regular layer.

I am making a frame by frame animation, where I draw a character, make a new frame and use the onion skin to slightly move my character. Is there a way to make a certain part faster than others? I made a character prepare to kick someone, but since i was doing it frame by frame it looks slow. So instead of taking out frames and making it look choppy, how do I make a certain part faster or increase its FPS? I tried making a new scene and changing its FPS, but that still changes the overall FPS.

I have an problem whereby I have created a Frame by Frame dancing human figure and now I want to move it across the screen as well as scale it using a Tween.
I have spent quite some time slightly adjusting the upper arms, forearms, hands, legs etc and creating a new keyframe for each movement. All the movements are all in one layer... ie the forearm doesn't have it's own layer etc. I am running the animation at 24fps so there is quite bit going on.
I now realise that I should have created a symbol/movie clip from the first image I created and then scaled and moved the image first before animating it's limbs but I only realized that after hours of work and I would hate to start all over again.
So basically what I have is a dancing human figure in the one spot moving it's arms and legs and I want it to move across the screen and become larger by scaling it using a Tween. I could of course re-edit each keyframe by slightly scaling and the slightly moving the figure but that will take quite some time to get right as there will be a fair bit of trial and error doing it that way.

I have a project that involves flash animation- almost movie like. I need some advice on how to do flash animation. I think I'll create the graphics in illustrator. Basically, the storyline is this:
- guy leaves house and walks to car
-starts engine, puts on shades and speeds off
-scenes of downtown chicago (nightlife)
-view license plate
What is the best way to do this? create graphics in illustrator for frame by frame? Should I use after effects? The client doesn't have a high budget so video is out of the question.

I created a frame by frame animation using the default elapsed time. There are 41 frames, and it is completed in 1.7 seconds. I would like the whole sequence to complete instead within 30 seconds. How can I change the timing? I am using Adobe Flash CS4 Professional (v. 10.0.2).

I am developing a game for the Android platform using flash cs5 and AS3.
problem: the game will run at 24-29 fps until I call a movieClip that has frame by frame animation, then it will drop to 10-14 FPS. It looks perfect on my PC and does not lose frames until I move it to my Evo for testing. I have tested on an Epic also and I do not lose Frames which leads me to believe that it is the pixil population in the evo that is causing the problem but I have tried everything I can think of to not make it so intense on the graphics but same results every time.
It's a 20 frame animation and my FPS in flash is set to 24
What I have tried:
png's on each frame |
gif's on each frame |

I have been using a template from the Adobe Flash Professional CS5 from Media PlaybackSimple Photo Album.I added 15 frames and and used the built in Action and Playback buttons (3 buttons. What i want ot do is make it look like the Controller as seen below.I would like the movie to be able to be controlled frame by frame, go to the beginning etc. just like the controller. I am having a hard time understanding what to do. I have added buttons but when i do it flips out and scrolls through the frame by frame without stopping.

handling of frame-by-frame bitmap animations?I'm putting together an app with an animated character that stands on screen and moves around doing animations. Each animation (Talking, Dancing, Jumping, etc) is an individual Movie Clip made up of around 50+ PNGs in sequence. I'm using CS3 to create the clips, and export them as SWCs for use in Flex.
The problem is memory usage. It seems that Flash will place the entire movieclip into memory , and when we are talking 50 frames, 256w x 256h, 24-bit color, 8-bit alpha, that's a lot of memory (so (256*256)*4 = 250k each frame * 50 frames = ~13 megs of memory for each clip). Couple that with the fact that Garbage Collection doesn't seem to happen very often, and this simple little app takes can take up 300megs+ of memory.

Pardon my most likely newbie mistakes.I imported a FLV file I created in After Effects into Flash CS4, using the wizard. I choose the correct file path and no skin.Then using the FLV playback components I made a custom play/pause button.When I test the movie it works beautifully.Not when I export (I have tried quicktime movie and SWF). I think I only get one frame (the first frame is empty, so not 100% sure).I have never worked with Flash, is there something I need to do in the timeline, like setting an in and out point or something?

have made preloaders before have had problems with delay, ultimately because you have used the 'attachMovie' method in your AS and extra weight has been added in to the mysterious '0th' frame.Using the 3 frame method ie ( 1st - preloader, 2nd- components, 3rd- application), here's what you do: Rather than having to rework your script and take out the attachMovie methods you can simply deselect 'export to first frame' on you're linked mc's. Now select the 2nd keyframe in the timeline and drag instances of these mc's onto the movie (off stage of course). Now, in the 3rd frame place the actionscript as you had it before (making sure you have placed stop actions). And there you have it! Now flash loads your linked mc's in the 2nd frame, and they can be preloaded along with the rest of your movie.

I searched the forum and only find AS3 solutions. Does anyone know a way to export audio for actionscript after frame 1? I unchecked the "Export on Frame 1", and what that did was to skip exporting my audio all together. "Export for Actionscript" is still checked, but I don't know how to tell it when, I guess, is the problem.
I saw one thread that said to put the audio on the timeline, so I tried it, and although the volume slider still to worked with that metthod, but the mute button, which uses the Sound.start() and Sound.stop() commands, stopped working.

Sorry about the title, I'm not exactly sure how to explain this with a few words. I've looked through google searches and found that people find it easlier when exporting classes in frame 2 when using a preloader. I'm currently using the usual method of having frame 1 with the preloader, frame 2 with the asset holder and the bulk of the game, frame 3 has the stop(); action. This is the tutorial I followed to get a working preloader AS Gamer.
After many hours of searching I've only found mentions and revalations of people using export on frame 2 instead of the traditional asset holder, but no examples or tutorials. Does any know where I can find a tutorial with example code I reference to get a export on frame 2 preloader?

so I have a looping animation that is several frames long. Inside the animation is a button, when pressed I want to go to another part of the timeline, where another animation is waiting. Simple, I got that working no problem. But... I need the first animation to go to the last frame in the loop before starting the next animation. The way I have it now makes an ugly cut, and the transition between animations isn't seamless.

When I add linkage to the music file I'm using I need to select 'export in first frame' in order for the play/mute button to work. But when I do this the preloader doesn't show up until about 80%. Is there a way around using export in first frame while still having usable play/mute buttons.

I'm having trouble figuring out how to get my audio to load without exporting it in the 1st frame. In other projects where I use components, in the linkages panel, I deselect 'export in first frame', and put an instance of the component in an assets frame. That way the preloader opens right away and the components loadup in the second frame (which just gets jumped over when the movie plays). I'm trying to do this with my linked audio but it won't work. When I deselect export in first frame, I just get no audio. In the assets frame I have the actionscript

I have my flash on multiple scenes, and would like to play an animation when clicking on the navigation button before switching to a different scene.
I'm halfway to accomplishing this.
Here is what i used
Code:
_root.gotoAndPlay("changepage1");
_root.onEnterFrame=function(){
if(this._currentframe=="changepage2"){
[Code]....
The above code is on a blank keyframe. Changepage1 is the start of the animation and Changepage2 is the end of the animation.
Upon clicking the navigation button it plays the above scenes.
However it doesn't change scenes to scene "Home2".
